Now Hawk is defending the pitch selection, and of course Stone gets the last laugh

Hawk is such a f***ing moron

If his control improves just slightly, he’s a future #2 easily

You can probably forget about Collins. Obviously it’s early but he has been extremely underwhelming

Yeah, NOW he’s getting squeezed. The homeplate ump’s been pretty bad today

That last one was hit off of the end of the bat

Good to have Hawk back, defending every terrible play and every brutal coaching decision. Go away already

Why do Hawk and Stone think that Moncada is Leury? Holy s***

Getaway day for the homeplate ump, eh? He’s called a handful of pitches strikes that were actually balls

That segment was painful. Roan is terrible enough as it is, but to listen to him and Hawk talk about golf? That inning is finally over. Thank god

Davidson’s OPS is hovering around .900 as we approach 5/1. Who would have thought?

Could have hit the 2 fastballs right down the middle

2-3” off the plate, low and away

Every pitch was called correctly, so I’m not sure I agree

I’ve just about seen my fair share of walks for the next 5 months. This is gross

I asked this last night, but isn’t Geoff Blum their analyst?

What the hell is Hawk talking about

I was told “honestly, take the year off” last night in the GT, so I guess while it’s beyond both of our wildest expectations, everyone else here assumed they’d be this s***ty, so it’s our fault for not being mentally prepared to lose 13 out of every 15 games

Let’s just say you’re correct (you’re not) that all teams who tank do it, win for 3-4 years and then suck ass again: wouldn’t that be a good problem to have? They were 90 feet away from back to back championships. The argument could also be made that the Royals, being a small market team and all, couldn’t afford to keep all of their guys around. The Sox, meanwhile, *should* be able to keep the main guys if it all works out. Unless you’re LAD, NYY, BOS, or the Cubs, some of those stars will have to leave. Like someone else mentioned, the Cubs and Houston are going to be in the playoffs for the next 10 years. The Braves’ rebuild are looking good & Cincy’s farm is getting there too. Not sure why you picked one organization who successfully tanked just to help your point. I think you’re getting two options mixed up. Typically loading up on FA’s is the way to only compete for a year or three, although that’s only if you get lucky. Rebuilding (“tanking”) is the way to sustain success for years if done properly.

Fixed

Austin said “2-3 on THIS roster” and Balta said “I think 10-15,” so we’re discussing the White Sox roster, not all of the minor leagues.

What 10-15 current players are apart of the Sox future?

Merkin says managers decision

April 1, 2019, hopefully. What the f*** is the point otherwise

You thought they’d be lucky to win 55 games? Come on now
